A woman who was stabbed last week in Dalton, Ga., died Sunday, Dalton police said this afternoon.

Glenda Dyer was stabbed in a domestic incident Thursday in a home on Elaine Way. Her husband, David Dyer, 48, faces murder charges atop previously filed charges of aggravated assault, battery, and felony interference with an EMS worker by violence.

Police spokesman Bruce Frazier said David Dyer's bond hearing was set forTuesday but that may be rescheduled now for Thursday.

Authorities said Thursday that David Dyer was outside the home when emergency responders arrived about 12:20 p.m. He was bleeding and apparently had cut his wrists, police said. He fought with EMTs, injuring one slightly, and was arrested.

Inside the house, rescuers found a bleeding Glenda Dyer, who was taken to the hospital.
